FormatterFactoryMaker (dotify.library 1.0.5 API)

java.lang.Object
- org.daisy.dotify.api.formatter.FormatterFactoryMaker

```
public class FormatterFactoryMaker
extends Object
```
Provides a factory for formatters. The factory will instantiate the first Formatter it encounters when querying the services API.

Like all maker classes in the api, this class is only used directly in SPI context. Unlike some other classes however, this class does not implement a service interface that can be used from OSGi. The reason for this is that the implementation simply returns a single instance of the lower level interface with references populated with SPI. To use in OSGi context, request the lower level service directly from the DS registry.
